| dc.description.abstract | In 1999 the Wonnarua Nation Aboriginal Corporation acquired the site of the former St Clair Mission where their forebears lived. They will recreate to turn it into a cultural centre that will sustain and strengthen their community and they are pursuing reclamation and recreation of language, material culture, art, family and public history projects. They do so in the context of Native Title legislation and debates about Aboriginality and identity shape their relationship to their past. The historiographical significance of their relationship to the past is that it challenges the modes of engaging with history that have justified and structured colonial history making. | en |
